I am NANCY; a recent graduate from PATSON UNIVERSITY. I studied hard for three years; into pursuing the career of my dreams… the most amazing journalist PATSON could ever ask for… but my parents weren’t impressed with my career goals…92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUePMBVOVT
My parents wanted me to be a REGISTERED NURSE… and I said no to that… I hate medical and science-y sort of stuff. I don’t have a head of medical encyclopaedia; and as such; I ain’t interested for that sort of work… so my parents grunted when I said NO.. and I pursued the career of my dreams…. Ahhh JOURNALISM..
I studied; and graduated. And found myself stunned; lost in the world of unemployment…. Yes I did well in my internship but I wasn’t guaranteed I’d still be there after my internship… in fact… the rude employer picked my partner intern… that… that really pissed me off for days…
Anyway; I’ve been trying to get my break in the industry for ages…. No luck. But I won’t give up… all my other friends who studied JOURNALISM with me has had the same issue. I can’t even get work experience because of insurance reasons… I must say… it really does make me depressed.. but I am a fighter.92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsdtS9uCww
I’ve been hoping that I come across a killer story that will be my breaking point… my number one hit… my killer story. YES…. YES… I am so excited.
I used to love watching SUPERMAN; the movies and his lover LOIS LANE. I’d dream every night of myself being the most famous Miss LOIS LANE: winning all the Pulitzer Prize awards… man… wouldn’t that be the dream.. it so would.
FORWARD TO TODAY:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZUh1iYcOb
I am walking along the streets of PATSON. PATSON is a vibrant city; they call it the greenery city. The greenery plants fill the streets of the marvellous city; I see happy kids with their parents make their way to school. I see busy-likers make their day to work; ready to make their daily contribution to society. And I… I want to make my part in this marvellous city.
I sit at the park benches; and pull out my tiny blue backpack hanging on my back. I unzip the tiny blue backpack; and grab out a container containing my beautiful ham/cheese sandwiches. My grandmother’s recipe; the only thing that keeps my tummy happy and fed each day.
I eat… enjoying and delighting in every bite I take. The ham… the texture and the slimy loving of the ham; embraces my tongue; as I eat with joy…. I am happy. I take another bite; enjoying the cheddar tip on my tongue; as I consume it… oh beautiful.
I finish eating minutes later. And some man stumbles behind me. I am in shock; as I turn my head. He greets me:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkboNzBwkGq
“Hi. Nice… I like that green-jacket you’re wearing. It’s perfect for a nice cool day.”
I smile at the man; and I thank him:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbBN2UIsVv
“Thank you… thanks… yes… the winter breeze and the winter season I am no fan of.. But thanks to this extra-warm, cozy jacket. I am safe and sound…”
The man is in a casual blue tshirt and black jeans. He ha brown spiky hair; he is sure good-looking. He smiles and talks again…92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcSjSTopfe
“Man… you sound like a poet. Your choice of words. Oh I… I uh… I’m JESSE..”
I smile; he lends out his hand to me. I shake it and we embrace eye contact. I start to feel romantic but I keep my composure and keep calm. He talks again..92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoy0Ezx2tt
“So uh… what do you do for a living. You’ve got to be a writer of some sort. I mean. With the choice of words you had chosen; well damn I must be correct.”
I smile; and am in shock. He knows I’m a writer of some sort… but uh… I’m in so much shock. It’s like he solved my biggest personal secret ever without trying… I am shook; and I respond…92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOwWYY4u0q
“Yes… yes I am a writer. A journalist. Just trying to make my way into this world. That’s all…”
I smile in embarrassment. He smiles at me; and lifts a strand of my hair; overlapping it onto my ears. He talks…92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPcdgHiWVc
“It’s nice to meet you… I uh. I’m new in this town Patson. I came from NEW YORK CITY you see…”
I respond:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCKtFkBARE
“Oh New YORK CITY. The big apple. I’ve always wanted to go there. I’ve dreamed of going there… but my budget… my budget has never let me went or go there..”
He smiles and responds:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88OQJ69vyb
“Well that’s my point exactly. The prices in NEW YORK CITY is unbelievable. It’s getting worse… and I was not a fan of the rat-race; which is why I wanted to move to a smaller city.”
I remain inquisitive and question him:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Oe2q56K0h
“Wouldn’t you want to go to a smaller countryside town if you were looking to get away from the city.”
He smiles and responds:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ybgxYmNg2
“No… no… not at all… I feel like only the old… the elderly love small country towns… I don’t want to live and be in a town filled with the elderly. No thank you… besides”
He giggles and continues;92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQif5PbDwjT
“Old people stink… you know what I mean”
I giggle with him; even though the compliment was an insult. We both exchange smiles; and a moment of silence seeps through the air. He speaks:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRXJFZAksz
“Well uh… it’s nice to meet a new friend here it PATSON. It really is… I uh… We should exchange numbers… I mean. I’d love to keep in contact with you.”
I smile and speak:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYXYw7Mr3Sv
“Yes… yes of course… I could use a male friend.”
He smiles and we both exchange numbers. Oh… oh… I feel it… the romantic, luxurious feeling like I have found a man; in the most romantic setting… calm down NANCY… calm down… remember stranger-danger..
My friends and family always told me I had too much faith and trust in people. Oh maybe I should have become a counsellor…. Nah.. Nah…
We continue smiling at each other. He speaks:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBL9OxdDqCT
“So uh…. I know you told me you were a journalist… just trying to get a break I think I recall.”92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiSCMM6td7
I smile at his amazing memory and respond:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGL9eFxaCs
“Yeah… yeah.. I have been looking and looking for a breakout story… the whole work experience thing… no one wants to give… it’s hard…. But I know with a killer story; I’m golden. He smiles as he touches and pats my wavy blonde-hair. He speaks:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7gYGEP7QT
“Well uh… I’ll be on the lookout for a killer story… till we meet again.”
I speak:92Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8hQfsqWLy
“Thanks… thanks JESSE.”
He responds: “We shall keep in touch”
He leaves… oh my GOD… oh my GOD. My heart melts.. he… he is so handsome, gentle and tender-speaking… I need a bit of TLC: and I think I found the perfect carrier for it… I’m in love… I’m in love…
